ZARA shoes, Pillow Mist & Flipping Through…

I haven’t really taken advantage of the post-Christmas sales…the whole month of December seemed like one LONG sale (which is nothing to complain about!) but I personally have lost the motivation to go out and find bargains – I’m shopped out! The only 2 holiday sales I went to were ZARA and Bath & Bodyworks.

At ZARA I picked up these black studded heels and nude platform heels. Although I love bags and have a suitable one for every occasion – I can’t say the same about shoes. I have everyday shoes – but on the rare “going-out” occasion – I never have anything suitable to wear. Hopefully these 2 pairs will coordinate with most outfits. I love the studded details on the black pumps – and I’ve always wanted a pair of platform nude pumps. Though they’re VERY high, they are deceptively comfortable & the perfect shade to coordinate with my skin tone (plus $49 is a BARGAIN for real leather shoes!).

Don’t you love flipping through a magazine with friends: pointing out
your favorite looks and wishlist items, then tearing out pages for
future inspiration? Grab a mug of Green Tea and see what caught my
attention in this month’s Stylewatch magazine:

Taylor Swift on the cover.

Sandrah Hellberg, the new Guess model is so pretty – her makeup is very Ava Gardner, and she looks like Bridget Hall – one of my favorite models from the 90s.

Was hoping to find these sandals at ZARA – aren’t they the most sparkly & beautiful shoes you’ve ever seen?

More sparkles – love how the bold skirt is toned down with a chambray shirt and tan accessories. (The skirt is by Rafaella)

Although I don’t always like her choice of clothes, Katie Holmes is just stunning. Love her hair, make-up and black shirt.

Cute gift idea – I adore strawberry-scented bath products and am going to check this set out the next time I’m out shopping. Hope you enjoyed flipping through with me! Have you been shopping the Holiday Sales?

I was so happy to find the platform shoes – I'd been trying on pairs for 2 years – but never found the right shade of nude til now. So glad we're shoe twins on the studded heels – went back on your blog and saw your OOTD with them – they look fab on you!

LOVE the Zara shoes, I managed to find a few gorgeous items in Zara on sale too!I'm new to blogging, would love it if you could check it out sometime as your blog is one of my favourites 🙂 http://www.crazyclassycute.blogspot.com

I love the shoes you got, love!Haha, just earlier today I went through my old magazines, that I need to get rid of, and tore a few pages out. AND I was drinking my green tea! Too bad you don't live closer.

The shoes are AMAZING! They are so chic and versatile, they are the only heels you really need! Especially if you don't wear high heels too often. Zara has the prettiest shoes. They are fairly affordable too, which is great!
